How we use cookies and similar tracking technologies.
This Cookie Policy explains how Franco Brings (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website www.francobrings.com (the “Site”).

What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or phone) when you visit a website. They help the site remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size, and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don't have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.
We also use similar technologies such as web beacons, pixels and local storage. For simplicity, we refer to all of these as “cookies” throughout this policy.
